Benteke score, wonders will never cease, his form is bewildering having been prolific for several years.

He has completely lost it.
I never saw you do this for Nacho scoring 2 in 2games.


A newcomer would think you were praising a SE player called Benteke.

Talking about Xhaka, have you noticed his renewed desire to blow shots from deep? smiley
I think seeing Cedric getting a debut goal from a position he should be shooting from has ignited the fire. I hope it yields goals. He should be getting goals.

We've definitely moves on from OG and AS. But in this kinda set up, OG will get 3goals outta 7 Tierney crosses. No one should /can argue that!!!


But we've moved on.

How is it that you accept Vardy's tackle as things but castigate Nketiah. Between both which was more dangerous?
No intent from Vardy and immediately he knew his stud got into Mustafi's face, he apologized.


Nketiah's tackle was reckless. Forget babyface and all these defending him.



And overall, i consider this a crappy foolish mistake from Arteta.


I saw absolutely no reason for the removal of Lacazette. He should have only removed Saka that was evidently tired and just jogging. Laca was all fiery in pressing and even got an offside goal.

I guess he's allowing his love for Nketiah to get into hi tactical onus. Something evident with Pep.


Laca would never do that kind of rough play. Never.


Is Pepe on paternity leave? He should have been a good replacement for Saka.

Nketiah cannot do well with those kinda Tierney accurate crosses.


Arteta should wake up and apply sense here.


Gladly, the Xhaka Fortune of play and no loss continues.


Tottenham will be scared of him. He is always loose and seeing space when playing against them.

Father Hairstyle gave bad advice to Son Hairstyle. Now Son Hairstyle is on the You Will Walk Alone path cos of 4 different issues of indiscipline and outburst with Lil Pep.

Guys in his age bracket are very disciplined. So he has no excuse. And to think he did this at Lorient.... That's worse.


I wish however it can be curbed and used to get a better performance.

so in Spain there is no racism?
same Italy have the highest number of Africa immigrants and have over the years given some of the notably Africans most Nigerians the Italian passport...something the UK rarely do.... despite the economic contribution of Nigeria to the British economy.

the English press have a way of painting the English in good light whereas they racist to the core too..

same Spain know for racism a black man have coached a team in the la liga where as in England even their coloured ex-international's don't even stand a chance not even a black goal keeper
Im talking of Italy, you're bringing England. angry

Osimhen-Napoli, Venerated: 'Koulibaly reassured him on the theme of racism

OSIMHEN NAPLES - The Rai transfer market expert Ciro Venerato, took stock of the Osimhen negotiation on CalcioNapoli24 TV microphones:

“Today begins the week of Osimhen, from his entourage they tell me that he has not yet said yes to Naples but already today or tomorrow he could finally accept the blue offer. After direct contact with Koulibaly who came to the idea that the racism problem in Italy is limited to a few idiots. There is still no agreement between Naples and Lille, at this time we are talking and knowing their respective requests and offers. Lille asked for 80 million, Napoli will not spend that money and thinks about the 50-60 million plus bonus, without inserting Ounas as a counterpart"

gonfialarete .com/2020/07/06/osimhen-napoli-venerato-koulibaly-lo-ha-rassicurato-sul-tema-del-razzismo/

Translated from Italian



Subzero047
This is my own "But" in this whole matter



Napoli is a good club and they want him badly


But will Italy want him?

Meaning this racism issue.. Can Osimhen battle it the way both Obagoal and VicMo did it?


We don't need any psychological issues for his growth right now.


Just my concerns though.

TheSuperNerd:
Come on now Edi, we both know Aubameyang is likely to stay with Arsenal.
I understand Osimhen's crave for an EPL move but I think, in his best interests and for the good of his career growth, he should go to a side that offers him ample gametime and a chance at making him their main man. And I think Napoli offers that.

Do well in the Serie A and like Salah, you can bag your dream EPL move for an even bigger transfer price and higher salary incentives. Bigger than what Napoli will pay Lille to land him (if Osimhen eventually says yes to the Napoli deal).

But to answer the "unwritten" question if he would fit in at Arsenal? Yea. I think he would but Auba is staying. Perhaps Lacazette may leave as part of attempts to fund the Partey bid but I don't think it's happening so early this window.
Arteta needs anyone that listens to him and puts in hardwork right now. I personally feel if Lacazette leaves, Osimhen may risk joining the Gunners. Nketiah is no threat whatsoever to a starting berth if it comes down to that. So if Auba stays, e no suppose concern Victor. Na Laca matter suppose concern am. Anyway it goes, the Epl will be the better move.

KC is a forward, doesn't have the technical ability and or speed to play Wing.

Is not a skilful enough to play with any degree of guile to play as an SS. Certainly is not a AM.

So tell me something thar he dies beyond poaching that brings outstanding quality to the team. He is not like Firminho in Liverpool.

If he doesn't play he is not missed.

If Vardy, Ndidi, Chilwell, Maddison don't play the difference is clear.

So what are we to commend him for, Being luckyhuh
Wow. Yunno, I'm observing how you're shifting goalpost moving forward. Alright.

If he get Firmino Minutes, can you beat your chest and tell me he will be on a goals drought, similar to Martial's? Yes im asking. This same Nacho.


Ser the Foxes quartet you're using as comparism this season for him? All core players with highest mins. They don't play unless injury. Definitely, many players dont play and aren't missed. Ozil is there.

Really? How many goals did Yak score for eagles?
He is the 3rd highest goalscorer for SE with 21goals, just 2 behind Segun Odegbami's 23. 2 kpere.



I do feel he was deliberately shut out cos of that miss but also some politics too.


Based on how good Yak was then, 5games would have seen him become 2nd, overtaking Mathematician in the process.

My point is simple: let Moses enjoy his retirement in peace while we carry on with the new crop of players at our disposal...they have everything it takes to be better than Moses.. some of them already have better stats than Moses when he was at their age..

Rohr is building a young and talented team that would last us for long even after he leaves.. I'm afraid,the likes of Moses don't belong in that team...

Lol.... Nacho and Ndidi again. Funny duo. Ndidi ALWAYS doing the recording, and most times without Nacho knowing it... grin

This is Iheanacho checking Man Utd's result to see if they won. He is obviously thinking of Leicester's top 4 place knowing they have Arsenal next. He didn't check Chelsea's from this video but I think I know why. Once a Cityzen, always a Cityzen. His blue Manchester blood was at work here... cheesy



The convo went as follows:


Ndidi: How many Greenwood score?

Nacho: 2

Ndidi: Who score again?

Nacho: Martial score 1, Rashford score 1, Bruno Fernandes, he go always score, he'll always score.

Ndidi: Oboy, wetin you dey chop?

Nacho: See....*puts his snack in his mouth and takes a big bite* Na... **says something inaudible** I dey chop....


Crazy duo. grin grin

None of these players in comparison play in a top club and or in a top league apart from Iwobi and Chukwueze.

You cannot compare them.

Of you compare him to Iwobi them he is ahead the rest are not in the reckoning.

Finally, statistics are not entirely conclusive not indicative. There is something called , match impact and influence that's very difficult to assess with statistics.

Zaha is the most important player for Crystal palace he is thier driving force, drives the team forward. Without him the team is at a big disadvantage.

His transfer value price probably over £70 million. How many goals has has he scored this season just 3. Is there are wingers who have scored more but they are not regarded as better.

Victor Moses still remains in the context of Nigeria NUMERO 1.
Did you just say stats arent entirely conclusive? Wooooooow.



Match Impact
Match Influence


Goal/game
Goal ratio





Im glad this came from you.


By this, you need apologize for the way you describe Nacho then.


Chuks too impacts that Villa team despite the stats.


New benchmark by you. I hope to use it going forward.

That's more than a goal contribution every game.

He has started 9 Premier leagues and has 5 goals 3 assists in 769 minutes.

If i wantu go really crazy, ill say such is now his standard for rejuvenating from totally impotent to Good improvement.
